Oh, Im Showing and I am sooo Telling.....

Ok, don't be so presumptuious. It's not what it sounds like. I am not pregnate and will not be again, unless it is a miraculous act of God. Meaning, I am not showing personally. What I am talking about are those Thrifty Thursday deal! Again, Y'all amaze me! What fabulous finds you shared for #35 of Thrifty Thursday! Take a look at this loot that you shared in Thrifty Thursday this week....

My blogger friend, Kate (who also hails from Helena) grabbed these gorgeous frames for just $3.00

Over at the McCray family blog, these amazing Aldo Bronze Metallic Peep Toe Pumps were a thrifty treasure...:Paid:$9.99 Retail:$120.00 :). What a deal..and you know she gon' be lookin good walking down the street in those this fall!

She and I must have been eyeballing the same thing and had similar ideas. Great minds do think alike, dont they? See what she used for her thrifty boot tray, something you can find at walmart for a single digit $$. Click here to take you there. I hope she gets a "kick"back. Get it "Kick"

Here is what I found (below)...a copper tray at the thrift store for $3.88...and it works like a charm, reminding the kids to remove their dirty shoes before soming in the house.

Miss Mustard Seed had one of the biggest, thriftiest scores...this entire grouping (antique mirror, table with beautiful inlay and horn), all for less than four bucks.

I am so praying all those links are correct. I want to give proper credit where credit is due. What great deals! And that wasn't all...so amy of you linked up with thrifty wares! Thank you so much for joining in each week! I am sincerely appreciative of you joining the party. Afterall, It's not a party without You!

I want to sincerely thank you for taking the time to drop by Bloggeritvaille today.
Your kindness means so much to me! Have a wonderful weekend. Do something fun! Life is short! LIVE it! Really LIVE it.

Leigh, you know I adore you and you know I would be with you. Thank you so much for your precious words and I will see you sometime on Sat! I actually fell in love with that Ballard boot tray a few years ago and my sweet hubby built two for me!

I'm always amazed at what deals other people can find. Thanks for linking up to them!! I'm working on a garage sale, so people coming to my sale are going to get some really great thrifty finds. Hopefully I'll be able to blog about it next week for TT.

I am amazed at what people find! (Sometimes I'm even amazed at what I find, LOL!!). Well I already have a thrifty post up so I've made a note (a literal note) to link up on Thursday. Three bucks was the magic number for me, too. :-)

Follow me, It'll be alright....

A Woman....

"Whatever you give a woman, she will make greater. If you give her sperm, she'll give you a baby. If you give her a house, she'll give you a home. If you give her groceries, she'll give you a meal. If you give her a smile, she'll give you her heart. She multiplies and enlarges what is given to her. So, if you give her any crap, be ready to receive a ton of s*&t."

Words of Wisdom

"Older and wiser voices can always help you find the right path, if you are only willing to listen."-Jimmy Buffett

Sea JoyWhen I go down by the sandy shore,I can think of nothing I want moreThan to live by the booming blue seaAs the seagulls flutter round about me.I can run around when the tide is outWith the wind and the sand and the sea all about,And the seagulls are swirling and diving for fish.Oh, to live by the sea is my only wish.- Jacqueline Bouvier

"Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn't do than by the ones you did. So throw off the bowlines, Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream." --- Mark Twain

The cure for anything is salt water---sweat, tears, or the sea. ~Isak Dinesen

I know what it is to be in need, and I know what it is to have plenty. I have learned the secret of being content in any and every situation, whether well fed or hungry, whether living in plenty or in want. I can do everything through him who gives me strength.Philippians 4:12,13 NIV

Live a good life and in the end it's not the years in the life, it's the life in the years.~ Abe Lincoln

Let your boat of life be light Packed with only what you need --A homely home and simple pleasures,One or two friends, worth the name,Someone to love and someone to love you,A cat, a dog, and a pipe or two,Enough to eat and enough to wear,And a little more than enough to drink...For thirst is a dangerous thing.-- Jerome K Jeromefrom "Three Men in a Boat"

The love of God is like the ocean, you can see its beginnings but not its end.

"No one can make you feel inferior without your consent."~Eleanor Roosevelt
